Reaction of interest is: Ca + 2H2O ↔<span> Ca(OH)2 + H2

Answer 1:
</span><span>Number of moles of calcium = </span>\frac{\text{weight of Ca (g)}}{\text{Atomic Weight}}

Atomic weight of Ca = 40.078 g/mol

Therefore, Number of moles of calcium = \frac{\text{4.8}}{\text{40.078}}
                                                               = 0.1198.

Number of moles of Ca = 0.1198.
....................................................................................................................

Answer 2: 
Number of moles of water = \frac{\text{weight of H2O (g)}}{\text{Molecular Weight}}

Molecular weight of H2O = 18 g/mol

Therefore, Number of moles of water = \frac{\text{3.6}}{\text{18}}
                                                               = 0.2.

Number of moles of water = 0.2.
......................................................................................................................

Answer 3: 
Number of moles of water = 0.2
Number of moles of Ca = 0.1198

Here it can be seen that, Number of moles of water > Number of moles of Ca.
Hence, water is in excess. 
.........................................................................................................................

Answer 4: 
Number of moles of water that is in excess = 0.2 - 0.1198
                                                                     = 0.0802

We know that, 1 mole of water ≡ 18 g of water
Therefore, 0.0802 mole of water ≡ 1.4436 g of water.

Thus, 1.4436 g of water is excess in the experiment.

Answer:

D) In case 1, both PS I and PS II completely lose function; in case 2, a proton gradient is still produced.

Explanation:

The light dependent reaction of photosynthesis, which produces the ATP and NADPH needed in the light independent stage of the process, includes complexes of proteins and pigments called PHOTOSYSTEMS. These photosystems (I and II) are key to the functionality of the light dependent reactions in the thylakoid.

The major pigment present in both photosystems is CHLOROPHYLL A, which absorbs light energy and transfers electrons to the reaction center. Chlorophyll B is only an accessory pigment meaning it can be done without. Hence, if all of the chlorophyll A is inactivated in the algae but leaves chlorophyll B intact as in case 1, both PS I and PS II will lose their function because Chlorophyll A is the major pigment that absorbs light energy in both photosystems.

In case 2, if PS I is inhibited and PS II is unaffected, a PROTON GRADIENT WILL STILL BE PRODUCED because the splitting of water into protons (H+) and electrons (e-) occurs in PSII. Hence, H+ ions can still be pumped into the inner membrane of the thylakoid in order to build a proton gradient even without the occurrence of PS I.

MAVERICK [17]
It will be half

A normal cell contains 46 chromosomes.
Gametes only contain 23 because they will be paired with an opposite gamete cell upon fertilisation

- Egg contains 23
- Sperm contains 23

Together they make the normal amount of 46
